Podcasting in higher education has become a critical new technology for delivering content in a format that our students already use everyday. Podcasting allows students to subscribe to frequently updated content that is automatically downloaded from a podcasting service to their MP3 player. From coursecasting (capturing an entire lecture in an audiofile) to videocasting, to walking tours and Stanford’s use of iTunesU – podcasting is an important new instructional technology.

Learn how to create, edit, and deliver a podcast in this hands-on workshop.
